Transcript

The Equitable Life Assurance Society presents This is your FBI. This is your FBI, the official broadcast from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Present it transcribed as a public service by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and the Equitable Society's representative in your community.

The Equitable Life Assurance Society has more than 8,000 trained representatives from coast-to-coast, serving nearly 6 million members.
